Second Sunday of Advent = more Hygge (pronounced hoo-ga) 🕯️🕯️

 

The author of the book "The little book of Hygge. Danish secrets to happy living” Meik Wiking calls candles “instant hygge”. That is the easiest way to achieve coziness and comfort. Unlike lamps and fixtures, lighting candles in the house give natural vivid light, which favorably affects the emotional background of a person. This is especially important in the fall-winter period when many suffer from depression.

Mood swings and winter go hand in hand, but the Danes have learned that the right lighting at home makes the atmosphere cozy and winter more enjoyable. According to Meik Wiking, candles help you enjoy the cold winter evenings, and not endure them in anticipation of spring. When you light a vivid light, it becomes cozy and comfortable. And you won’t feel down or sad in such an environment.
